Valet contracts & proposals

A better agreement.
For both sides of the curb.

A profitable valet operation. A property confident in its service. We study the demand, plan the staffing, and build the contract—then present it to the property on your valet company’s behalf.

Explore contract structures ↓

01 / Start at the property

Every stand has
its own rhythm.

The residential drive and the restaurant entrance can be busiest at entirely different times. We evaluate each stand before recommending how many people it needs, in which roles, and when.

Read the demand

Arrivals, retrievals, peak periods, parking distance, events, and seasonal changes.

Plan the coverage

Attendant and supervisor counts by stand, shift overlap, and the service level to protect.

Model the margin

Expected collections against labor, operating costs, and the property’s share.

02 / Choose the structure

The contract should fit
the operation.

Revenue share, flat price, hourly, management fee—or a combination. We compare the economics and responsibilities before recommending an arrangement.

Revenue shareShare the income. Define what counts.

The operator and property share an agreed revenue base. We model the split alongside labor and operating costs, and spell out how validations, subscriptions, refunds, and fees affect the calculation.

Flat priceA defined service for a predictable fee.

The property pays a fixed amount for an agreed scope. We connect that price to service hours, stand coverage, and expected volume, with terms for extra coverage and changes in demand.

Hourly staffingPay for the coverage the property needs.

Charges follow hours worked at agreed rates by role. We recommend attendants and supervisors by stand and time period, and define overtime, minimum coverage, and approval of additional hours.

Management feeSeparate the cost of service from the fee to run it.

The property funds agreed operating costs and pays the operator a fixed or percentage management fee. We identify reimbursable expenses, the fee calculation, budget approvals, and the reporting behind each invoice.

Minimum guaranteeA baseline return, with room for upside.

The operator commits to an agreed minimum payment to the property, potentially with a share above a threshold. We test whether projected collections can support that commitment after staffing and operating costs, including quieter periods.

Per vehicle or eventTie the price to a defined unit of service.

A property, venue, or validation partner pays per eligible vehicle, or a quoted price for an event. We define what is included, expected volume, minimum staffing, service windows, and overage terms.

Hybrid arrangementsCombine the pieces around the operation.

Hourly costs plus a management fee. Revenue offsets against the property’s bill. A share of the remaining surplus. We model how the components work together, who covers a shortfall, and how both sides participate when the operation earns more.

03 / Make the economics work

Room for profit.
Reasons to say yes.

Valletto connects the property and the valet operator. We help you make a proposal the property can understand, with a service plan your team can afford to deliver.

For the valet operator

A staffing plan grounded in demand, a view of operating margin, and clear compensation for running the service.

For the property

Defined coverage, transparent costs, and a clear account of what it pays, what it receives, and how performance is reviewed.

We compare quieter, expected, and busier scenarios. Projections show their assumptions so both parties can see where the economics change.

04 / Put it in writing

The numbers, the terms,
and the presentation.

We draft the proposed contract and commercial terms, prepare the supporting proposal, and present the case to property management on your behalf. Both parties can review the same scope, assumptions, and responsibilities.

Service & staffing

Stands, operating hours, roles, coverage, service expectations, and additional staffing approvals.

Revenue & expenses

Who collects, which costs are included, how fees and shares are calculated, and who covers a shortfall.

Reporting & payment

Supporting records, reconciliation, invoice timing, payment terms, and performance reviews.

Responsibilities & change

Equipment, insurance responsibilities, launch plans, contract duration, renewal, and exit terms.
